It sucks, but there's no way to bypass all the stages of mourning...without letting time slowly heal you.
I've been in and out of love, I don't know how many times...where I'd thought I'd die from the excruciating pain (I'm bpd). After trying any and all vices to speed the recovery, I discovered what helped me the most was hard physical activity...for me, that's skiing, cycling and running. Do you like any outdoor activities? Oh, and also, traveling helped, too...spending time in new places where I had no memories of the person. You don't have to go far - just somewhere new.
I don't know what transpired in your relationship, but sometimes it just wasn't meant to be...there will be someone better for you in the future. There always is. For now, you have to focus on taking care of yourself.
No matter how it feels now, you will get over this with time...But I have a feeling you already know this...yes? Just keep telling yourself that "it", too, will pass... And it will...('til the next time...sorry, just kidding.)

Yea I do bodybuilding so when I can I get back to the gym and try to get back on my routine... but lately it's as if I can't keep my mind focused on anything. It's like I don't want to sit down or stand up... I don't want to lay down or get up and move around... I just don't want to do anything... but I have been forcing myself to try and get back to my regular routine but my diet is all screwed up (either undereating/overeating) and that effects my energy and endurance in the gym because like I said I had an established routine.
I guess I just have to remind myself that this is recent and I have to grieve... it's just so hard to cope... I'm glad (and saddened) that others are and have went through this so I don't feel quite as alone.
Thanks for your kind words
